AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

phantomstrider I was blown away by this sequel. The soundtrack phenomenally matches the scenes, the voice cast are exceptional choices, the animation is beautiful (despite only a 20M budget, which is tiny for a disney animated movie). This is easily among the absolute best disney sequels I've ever watched. I'm really glad they gave it a cinematic release as it deserved it.

anthony-rigoni Back in 2002, I went to see this movie with my mom and sister. As a kid, I loved watching this movie. But now that I'm 21 years old, I hate this movie. It is never true to the original James M. Barry play, Peter Pan, nor the 1953 Disney movie of the same name.The plot focuses on Jane, Wendy's daughter, who is kidnapped by Captain Hook and his band of pirates at the height of World War II.... Wait a minute! World War II?! It looks like this movie is saying "Forget the story taking place in the 1910's, let's have this movie take place in World War II. Don't be concerned with Nazis and the bombing of London, let's focus on Jane and her adventures in Neverland!" And look how Wendy's trying to make her kids think that Captain Hook and his gang are bombing London. What's wrong with you, Wendy?! You were dignified in the original movie, why are you trying to make the kids forget... (smacks himself) okay, I'm going to wrap up this review before I have a meltdown.Pros: Corey Burton. Heck, if Hans Conreid can do a good job voicing Captain Hook, then Corey Burton can do a good job as well. Cons: Generic music, character inconsistencies, awkward animation, and a plot hole with World War II.

Garrett DeRose Return to Neverland...First of all, this movie is pretty pointless and plot-less. Maybe I'm spoiled with the original "Pan" or Spielberg's "Hook" (which is one of my favorite films of all time) - but I think that such a fantastical place such as Neverland needs a bit more exploration for the viewer. I've grown up with Peter Pan and his Lost boys. I'd like to see more of Neverland and less 'stuff' What I mean by 'stuff' is all the shenanigans that are constantly going on. This movie has ADHD for sure. I know it's geared towards kids, maybe that's why I'm having such a hard time connecting to it. If they're going to introduce some dramatic themes like war and timeless love, they could at least follow up with some depth. They skimmed the surface on everything that could've been something. Instead, Disney decided to give us a montage of slapstick worthy of having the Benny Hill 'Yakkety Sax' playing on repeat for the entirety of the Neverland scenes. Speaking of music... the very few musical sequences feel forced and unnecessary. I remember there's some Evanescence-Amy-Lee-ish lament in the beginning which in the lyrics reiterated events that happened 2 minutes ago. Both me and my girlfriend were scratching our heads, wondering if it was a joke."Return to Neverland"... I don't feel as if I just revisited the place I did when I was a kid. I feel as if I've just visited some spin off place where quick dollars and poor writing are placeholders for adventures and dreams.GG Disney. I just hope this girl with her scene-girl A-line haircut (which I'm SURE is accurate for WW1/WW2 era) doesn't end up as an animatronic feature on the ride @ Disneyland.To sum things up: If you want Pan - watch Hook, or maybe a good stage version. If you want Emo Loony Toons, I advise you to rent this movie.

Kristine The other day I decided to go for the Disney sequels, Peter Pan one of my top favorite Disney films and as nervous as I was to see the sequel "Return to Never Land", but I decided to go ahead and give it a look. You know what? It wasn't that bad, it was actually pretty enjoyable as far as Disney sequels go. I loved seeing the return of Captain James Hook, he and his sidekick, Smee, just cracked me up so badly in the first Peter Pan, they were back in Return to Never Land and are still crazy than ever. Despite the fact that the crocodile wasn't back, I would've loved to see that return, the octopus wasn't a bad addition. The jokes are still fun and the story is still magical. We got to see what life was like for Wendy when she finally had to grow up and had a family of her own.Wendy is all grown up and has a family of her own, a loving husband, daughter, Jane, and son, Danny. Her husband goes to war and tells little Jane that she is in charge, so Jane takes that very seriously and acts as head of the household. Despite that she is still very young, she doesn't believe in Never Land and her mother's tales, but when Captain Hook thinks he grabs Wendy, he grabs Jane and takes her to Never Land to capture Peter Pan. Peter saves Jane and offers her to join the Lost Boys and hopes to restore her faith in his adventures and fairies, but all she wants to do is go home.Return to Never Land is a fun Disney sequel that I have to admit that I was actually more impressed with. There are still a lot of great laughs and the story is still as adventurous as the first time when I watched the first Peter Pan. It was a little disturbing to hear the big difference of the voices, but I'm getting past it. After all, it's been over 40 years since the original Peter Pan, so I think it would've been hard to get the same actors. But I recommend Return to Never Land, it's a cute Disney sequel.6/10
